aceracpi - issue #71

HOW TO ENABLE


Posted on May 1, 2011 by Helpful Bear

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Acer Extensa 5220 2. openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64) kernel 2.6.34.8-0.2-desktop 3. wifi works and its led is on

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? bluetooth doesn't work and its led is off

What version of acer_acpi are you using? On which distribution and kernel version? openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64) kernel 2.6.34.8-0.2-desktop

Please provide any additional information below. I was wondering which file should I echo with "1" to enable bluetooth?

If I remember correct, you don't echo any file, instead, you use rfkill to manage wireless devices like wifi or bluetooth. In terminal: "rfkill list" without the quotemarks.

I have pretty similar issue with TravelMate 6292: BT is seems like not installed in the system. But it is there, but disabled somehow.

I'm looking for how to enable it.

Thanks in advance,
